4.0

Another really solid addition to the Rivers of London series with a healthy pile of well written magical shootouts thrown into a tightly plotted police investigation thriller. I’m still loving the wry first person narration and all of his nerdy cultural references. All of the characters are great.

3.5

this is a minor thing, but i really appreciate the huge improvement in the handling of the supporting trans character in this book vs the ignorant transphobia in that one scene in the second book. it's nice to see growth like that :)
